This used to be a Polynesian restaurant named Aku Aku. When it became a seafood restaurant, the statue of the Easter-Island-type guy was repainted as a Gloucester fisherman.

We went on Sunday -- looks good. I understand the food is also good. We will go back when it gets a little bit safer.

Big pipe smoking statue in a yellow slicker greets you as you round the corner to this seafood restaurant. The sailor was apparently an Easter island type figure at an Asian restaurant before being remade for the fish house. Brings a smile, and a good photo op!
